Need to rebuild two Merc 525’s.
I’m looking at purchasing a formula 400ss that will need two 525s rebuilt due to hard use can anyone give me an idea what that will cost.
Thanks Fred M

I'm doing one subbing out machining myself and I'll be in it at least 6.5k and that's doing it on the cheap ( new rods, Pistons, roller cam, lifters, heads, valves, rockers, rebuilding supercharger my self, etc does not include manifolds)
If you do it yourself I'd budget 8k each depending on what they need.
To give you an idea Eddie Young quoted me 12k to 13k for him to do the work, don't think that includes freight

you say "looking to purchase" so the question is where has this boat been? if fresh water and just rode hard and put up wet then the prices quoted are probably close. if the boat was in salt and rode hard then you may not have much worth building. where all has this boat been in its life?
